SILVÉRION 2400 shows broad-spectrum activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria including pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, as well as yeasts and molds. Concentrations as low as 0.1% - 0.3% SILVÉRION 2400 provide excellent efficacy against harmful and unwanted bacteria in rinse-off and leave-on skin care products.

Antimicrobial Active for Diverse Product Categories

SILVÉRION 2400 is compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients and is stable in formulations with pH < 7. Good compatibility with anionic and non-ionic surfactants and emulsifiers as well as amphoteric surfactants, allows SILVÉRION 2400 to be used in rinse-off and leave-on formulations including:

Liquid hand soaps

Skin cleansers

Body washes

Hair shampoos

Lotions and creams for facial and body care

Wet wipes

SILVÉRION 2400 is water soluble and easy to incorporate into the aqueous phase of gels, surfactants and emulsions produced in a cold process. During manufacturing of emulsions produced by hot process, SILVÉRION 2400 should be added to the final formulation after it has cooled down. In order to ensure optimal performance and stability, pH above 7 should be avoided as well as high salt concentrations.

SILVÉRION 2400 has demonstrated effectiveness against pathogenic bacteria and other unwanted microorganisms allowing a broad range of product formulations that offer significant reduction of microorganisms on the skin, including protection against bacteria which cause pimples and oily skin.
